| Monoprice HDMI Silver vs. Copper Newbie question here- At what point to runs become "long"? I need about 10 feet. I'm guessing 25 feet or longer would require the thicker guage, but if I'm wrong, please correct me. | |
| Amp switcher Catama,Can you halp me out with what kind of 12v trigger you used? A bit of a newbie question, but looking at the manual, it appears I need a y cable with a +/- connection. Before looking I assumed it was just a 3.5mm plug. | |
| Amp switcher Thanks for the info Catama. Sounds likes the Niles is the way to go.. | |
| Amp switcher Sounds like the safe approach is as Blindjim suggests. Blindjim - if you do decide to get the Niles, please post an update with your thoughts.Thanks again! | |
| Amp switcher As an update, it looks like your fears regarding the Russound are correct- I found some complaints about the connectors on AVS. | |
| Amp switcher Blindjim:That's the first I've heard of the Russound. I'll definitely look into it. As for the Niles, their website says it's rated for 350wpc (see my link). Can you point me to where you read otherwise? Thanks! | |

| Mid price receiver I second Deecee's recommendation. The 5960 (which is identical to the RXV-659 except it doesn't offer multi-zone operations) is the only receiver in its class that uses Brown Burr dacs, so unless you feel like you can't go with HDMI switching, it'... | |
| HT and 2 Channel System set-up question Thanks for the advice! The only thing is that right now, I am getting the LFE from the sub output on the Yamaha. That's what initially led me to use the switchboxes - one of them is connected to the sub, with one input connected to the Yammy's sub... | |
| HT and 2 Channel System set-up question Yeah, I know - I can get a bit long-winded at times.Won't splitting the signal cause concurrent signals to be sent to the subwoofer from both the McIntosh and the Yammy? If yes, wouldn't I want to avoid this? | |
| Recording Streaming Music I use Xitel's Inport, which connects to my computer's usb from my stereo and records files to my hard drive as 44.1kHz, 16 bit stereo WAV files. Inport can be had for around $70, and comes with great software that allows you to edit where tracks s... | |
| B&W Nautilus 804 Speakers + MAC4300V? Thanks Bullitt. I'll try that. |
